The last major <br />recruitment and appointment process occurred in October 2008. Chapter 2 of the Eugene Code addresses <br />standing committees to the City Council and the appointment process for those. For most standing <br />committees created in the Code, the council is the appointing authority. <br /> <br />The annual recruitment for boards, committees and commissions was initiated on July 14, 2008, and <br />concluded with appointments on October 27, 2008. The recruitment was publicized on the Internet, through <br />press releases, council newsletter items, City offices, and at City-related meetings and events. <br /> <br />For the Historic Review Board, the Mayor nominates and the City Council appoints. There were four <br />vacancies on the Historic Review Board. Five applications were received, and four applicants were <br />interviewed by the Mayor and Planning Commission President. Of the four persons interviewed, only three <br />were appointed to fill vacancies; Mayor Piercy and staff to the Historic Review Board recommend <br />reappointing Richard Danemiller to fill the last remaining vacancy. <br /> <br /> <br />RELATED CITY POLICIES <br />This item relates to the council goal of effective, accountable municipal government. <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL OPTIONS <br /> <br />1. Reappoint the nominee. <br />2. Decline to reappoint the nominee and require the Historic Review Board to recruit for another individual. <br /> <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />The City Manager recommends Option 1, reappoint the nominee. <br /> <br /> Z:\CMO\2008 Council Agendas\M081208\S0812083D.doc <br /> <br />
